How Do You Store Fondant?

Fondant, a sugar paste similar to play dough used for decorating cakes, is best stored properly to prevent it from drying out or becoming sticky.

Here's a breakdown of how to store fondant:

• When Not In Use: Fondant needs to be protected from air exposure.

  1. Wrap the fondant tightly in plastic wrap, ensuring there are no air pockets.
  2. Place the wrapped fondant inside an airtight container or a resealable plastic bag.
  3. Store at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and heat. Do not refrigerate or freeze fondant unless specifically instructed by the recipe, as this can affect its texture and consistency.
